5.0 out of 5 stars Great book available in reprinted version!, November 11, 2003

By A Customer

I saw the price tag of $153 for a used book and was in disbelief. At the BH&G website you will find this message: "We want to share some exciting news! We know that many of you have been searching for that elusive copy of the Heirloom Christmas Stockings in Cross-Stitch book. We¿re pleased to announce that we¿ve reprinted the book that features the first nine stockings from Cross-Stitch & Country Crafts¿. Orders are by credit card or check only; the price is $19.95 plus $4.95 shipping and handling. To order your copy, call 800/230-9237."

Go to BHG.com, select discussion groups, crafts, then cross stitch. Scroll down and you will see this message from the Cross Stitch Editor from the Creative Crafts div.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb Christmas Stocking book for the expert stitcher, January 24, 2001

By A Customer

I have made 5 or 6 of these stockings and always get rave reviews about them. I did the sewing room stocking for myself and the little girls room for my daughter. I wish that BH & G would also do one with easier stockings. I know the the original folder patterns for these have another stocking with them and they are much easier for a beginner. It would be nice if they put those in a book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Experienced Stitchers Delight, January 24, 2005

By	Kansas Cross Stitcher (So. Central Kansas) - See all my reviews

Very detailed patterns but clear and easy to follow.
Stockings are indeed heirlooms as each takes hours of stitching.
